According to there are only a few approvals for EB3 ROW in April so far.....
yeah that sucks, but on the brighter side they are processing EB3 PD's for beg and mid 2005.

My case is also similar to yours, My 1st labor was filed 2001 March, and I had to switch my employer and the 2nd labor was Sept 2002, Again I had to switch the employer, And finally 3rd labor was filed on June 2004, cleared around Dec 06 from the BEC .
Still waiting for GC with the Valid H1 ( Until Feb 2011)
I am waiting for the magic email.
Call them. For some it was approved and didnt trigger the e-mail.

Finally the much awaited SMS/e-mail came through (from TSC). My guess is USCIS (TSC/NSC/etc) is approving cases at random as long as PD is current. There is no logic to Filing date / Notice date and all that. I came on F-1 10 years back (08/03/00) and was current for 2 months in 08 with no luck..... Please be patient... I know it is been frustating after a long wait and at times to see GC get approved for folks with later PD and all that after all we are humans and feel why someone was choosen today and not me ...... hang in there and I wish u all get that magic e-mail.....

Well I had called a NY congresswoman when I was stuck in a H1 name check. I found them open and willing to help. She even contacted the FBI.
Well I am just an ordinary person, and the same as everyone here, and not saying I will do everything myself. There are persons who are better skilled at this and know the immigration law better.
Also don't rule out lobbying, I just said we also need something else that should justify our case without a lobby. I'm asking for suggestions or ideas.
I may be new here, If you see my post on the other forum, I'm asking for the creation of an organization with skilled people who will create a new campaign among legal immigrants. Kind of like Grass roots movement.
I saw that. Looks like you are trying to pimp for a lawyer. Learn to stand on your own 2 feet first.
All you have done is made a phone call to a lawmaker office. Before you start a poll go and meet your lawmaker and learn how to talk to lawmakers. That will be a good start.

The office people are very helpful. My case is Handled by Maggie.
I don't think their inqriry was initiated as my GC came very next day. I always tried to contact the 2 nd level IO by asking that I would like to confirm my Home address or my Alien number on I 140 and I 485 does not match. Just an ecuse to get to Level 2 IO instead of first level IO's who read what we see online as if we are illiterates

its different from person to person in so many ways, the above topics are good for general discussion but no one can generalize good or bad for rent vs own.. no way.. depends on many factors.. for some renting is the best option and for some people owning works best - GC or No GC is just one of the factors..
I own a townhome (20 yrs old) close to my work and pay $50 more than the rent in this location (marietta, GA). My GC just started (EB2).. it worked out good for me as I got a good 30 yr fixed rate. but thats my condition - I can't comment on someone happily living in an apartment - its their best choice for their circumstances.. Rent vs Own is not a absolute choice as good vs bad - in my opinion.. it just depends..

To whoever left the comment in my profile "why all this love for US Passport?"
It all depends on what country you are a citizen of. If you are a passport holder of a country like Canada,Autralia or most european countries, then you may not see much benefit in holding a US passport when travelling. But people from certain other countries, have to go through the hassle of obtaining visas prior to international travel, vacations etc. Sometimes we even have to get transit visas for countries that we pass through on our way to the final destinations. And these visas cost money. But if you hold a US passport/citizen of the US, then they do not make you jump through all those hoops. You board the plane and you get a visitors visa once you land in almost all countries (there are exceptions, India and Australia for example). But there it is. That is one of the priviledges of having a US passport.

Due to the delays in obtaining EAD from Nebraska Service Center; I am planning to do the following things-
1. On the 78th. day (since currently NSC is taking 11 weeks= 77 days, to process EAD cards) call USCIS customer support 1-800 number and tell them that my case is outside the processing timeframe.
However, if I do this, my case gets locked up. That is any call the customer service representative takes and opens a service request; another service request cannot be opened earlier than 30 days.
2. Even still if my application is not approved, then I plan to walk into the USCIS office on the 91st day and request an interim card.
My question is since, I opened a Service Request on the 78th. day, can the local office representative open another service request to request an interim card on the 91st. day, since 30 days did not pass from opening my service request.
Gurus, please comment.
E-Filed on 04/15 . Wifes EAD Card received on 06/01. Mine still says initial review so Initiated a service request but looks like it would not have much impact as case is still under normal processing times.
Getting concerned now since my current EAD expires on 90th day.

Hi All,
MY LC (PD May 2003) is still stuck in DBEC. So I may or may not be able to file withing Aug17th.
My question is regarding the procedure used by USCIS to process AOS applications. It would be great if someone could explain this to me.
These are my questions:
1. Is the AOS application processed by RD or PD?
2. Once USCIS starts processing the I485, do they check PD at any stage, or is it just used as the initail "gate " for allowing I485 application submission?
3. Suppose Tom with a PD of July 2006 applied in July 2007. Then Harry's case gets approved by BEC in August 2007 and he applies in October 2007. Who will get the GC first?
Thanks for the help!
Houston:
let me try to answer your question the best I can. Answers in order:
For all purposes: lets assume 2 examples. Person A PD July 2006 and RD of July2, 2007 and Person B PD April 2006 and RD of July 2, 2007.
1. AOS is processed by a "combination" of RD and PD. As per the current Bulletin BOTH A and B can apply. The Service centres are currently processing September 2006 applications. When they reach July 2, 2007 processing dates, both applications will be picked up and then "thoeretically" they should ask for Visa number for A BEFORE asking a visa number for B as A has an earlier PD.
2. Answered in same question 1 above.
3. If Harry's case gets approved in August 2007 by BEC he WILL NOT be able to apply for I-485 as the July Bulleting is valid only for applicants VALID in july. Just beacuse they are accepting till AUg 17, does not mean people whose LC got approved between Aug 1-17 can apply, becuase they were technically NOT eligible to apply in July.
Does that answer your questions. PM me if you want more detail.

It seems some people already coverted\or in the process of coverting from Eb3 to Eb2. Even I did that recently.
Regards,
Alex
When you do that, will you retain both cases or give up one?
And, say, my case is CP and is already in Consulate awaiting interview. If I start a new LC in EB2, do I have to give up my existing case?

Thnks, for the fax # , hope I get my EAD/AP soon, I had applied for AP on 4/9/2010 and EAD on 4/15/2010. My EAD is valid till Aug 3rd . My wife's EAD is till July 21st.
I sent both to Phoenix lock box as Im in CA. My checks havent been cashed yet, both were paper filing , in the past the checks used to be cashed in a week and I used to get the receipts in the mail within a weeks time.
Has any one been in a situation where they havent got EAD renewal in 90 days and has been successful in getting the interim EAD from the local USCIS office? Plz post their experiences here.
